Shek and Rank get you — and themselves — ready for the terrific quartet of divisional playoff games with the help of Green Bay Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk and Fox analyst Troy Aikman. Plus, the guys discuss some of the other headlines in a big sports week, such as RG3’s knee injury and the baseball hall of fame vote.

Shek and Rank catch up with quarterback guru Daniel Jeremiah (@MoveTheSticks) to talk about Matt Schaub going forward, the Baltimore Ravens’ new offense and the Washington Redskins’ other rookie quarterback, Kirk Cousins. Shek then leaves Rank, the birthday boy, alone with one of his favorite players, Green Bay Packers linebacker and TV/movie enthusiast/DDFP pal A.J. Hawk to discuss shirtless Detroit Lions players and a potential Super Bowl matchup against the New England Patriots before the pair review the hit TV show “Homeland”. Black Tie also gives a new shoutout and breaks news on the New Orleans Saints’ bounty scandal.

Shek confronts company-wide disapproval for his salad bar-related behavior; Handsome Hank and the Around The League boys Hanzus & Sessler (@NFL_ATL) debate which division is the NFL’s best; and Rank shares two delightful interviews with A.J. Hawk and Robert Griffin III.
